Technical Abstract

Methods and computer software are disclosed for determining a power budget for physical channels in a system. The method may include, obtaining a mean and variance of a previously computed power component; determining an estimate of a current power component in a current frame based on the mean and variance of the previously computed power component; and computing a power budget in a current frame using the estimate of the current power component.

Patent Claims
7 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

2

2. The method of claim 1, wherein determining the mean of the current power component comprises taking a summation for an averaging period of the current power measurement.

3

3. The method of claim 2, wherein determining the variance value comprises providing a function that derives the variance value based on a variance of the current power component.

5

5. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 4, wherein determining the mean of the current power component comprises taking a summation for an averaging period of the current power measurement.

6

6. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 5, wherein determining the variance value comprises providing a function that derives the variance value based on a variance of the current power component.

7

7. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6, wherein the power budget is for High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) physical channels in a Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) system.

8

8. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 7, the instructions further comprising determining the power budget for High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) physical channels for every frame.

9

9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8, wherein the values of the mean and the variance vary depending on different parameters, and wherein the parameters include at least one of channel conditions, a number of active users, High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) load, and a mobility of users.
